## Forearm Projection - AP - Lateral ### **AP Projection** **(Hand Supinated)** - Hand supinated - Patient lean laterally - Humeral Epicondyle // IR **(Hand Pronated)** - Pronation of Hand - Oblique Projection of the Forearm - Radius crosses the ulna - Humerus rotates medially ### **Lateral Projection** **(Lateromedial)** - Elbow Flexed 90° - Forearm and hand in true lateral - Humeral Epicondyle I IR ### **AP of Elbow Joint** - Midpoint of the Forearm - Radius and ulna - Proximal row of carpals Slightly distorted **Image Descriptions** - **Fig. 4-104** AP Forearm. - **Fig. 4-105** AP Forearm with hand supinated. - **Fig. 4-106** AP Forearm with hand pronated - incorrect. - **Fig. 4-108** Lateral Forearm. - **Fig. 4-109** Lateral Forearm. - Olecranon process - Humeral epicondyle - Coronoid process - Radial head - Radial tuberosity - Ulnar body - Radial body - Ulnar styloid process
